Ideas?

Oooooh… have you done a ./launcher rebuild app? Or at least a docker rm app? Try the latter first, and if that still doesn’t work, give the former a shot.

[image] mntbighker: I can however start a new container “docker run -it --rm busybox sh” with no errors. You’re not running the same Docker binary as ./launcher is: [image] mntbighker: starting up existing container /usr/bin/docker.io start app What happens if you try to run /usr/bin/docker.io run -it --rm busybox sh?

[image] mpalmer: /usr/bin/docker.io run -it --rm busybox sh [root@xxx ~]# /usr/bin/docker.io run -it --rm busybox sh / # No errors

“Curiouser and curiouser!” cried Alice (she was so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English). What about /usr/bin/docker.io start app? Also, does docker.io info give different results to docker info? Are they symlinked, or at least provided by the same RPM? If they’re in different RPMs, try removing the older one (it should be the one providing docker.io, because that’s a legacy name), and see if ./launcher becomes infinitely happier.

They are symlinked. /usr/bin/docker.io start app gives the same error as ./launcher start app.

I had to rebuild, but now it works. Thanks

Isn’t it great how Docker makes everything so much easier…

[image] mntbighker: Storage Driver: devicemapper You are using devicemapper, and this isn’t what we recommend as a storage drive, so keep that in mind.

You will experience drive corruption with devicemapper, it is just a matter of time. We block installs if devicemapper is detected.
